There are plenty of powerful robots that can clean floors with lots of suction power. They are not designed to work outside, though. The VERO is a quadruped vacuum cleaning robot for litter removal at beaches and parks. It has a vacuum cleaner that is connected with hoses to the four legs. The nozzles are attached to each foot.
VERO: a Vacuum-cleaner-Equipped Quadruped RObot for Efficient Litter Removal
This robot comes with autonomous navigation and AI-based detection. It is designed to pick up cigarette butts. It simply works its way close to the detected objects and activates the vacuum to pick them up. Due to its design, VERO can go places where wheeled and tracked robots can’t. As the researchers explain, the robot can pick up items without stopping its movement.
